| One of the East Coast's largest solar projects  Tiffany has dedicated of one of the East Coast's largest commercial solar projects. Tiffany's has deployed 1.3 megawatts of solar energy at the company's retail distribution centers in Whippany and Parsippany. Installed in the summer 2006, the solar panels generate enough energy during the day to power more than 1,300 New Jersey homes. Comprised of 6,394 solar panels and covering 104,000 square feet, Tiffany's new solar arrays will supply on average approximately 30% of Tiffany's distribution centers' electrical load at peak demand times. Lighting upgrades that reduce electrical use and improve lighting quality will help achieve an overall estimated annual savings.The project was underwritten in part by rebate incentives provided by the NJ Clean Energy Program, which is managed by the NJ BPU. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
